One hundred million!
Lu Xuan didn't press the bidding button this time; he shouted it out directly. The power of a Martial Artist was attached to the sound waves, spreading to every corner of the venue.
Instantly, the entire auction hall fell into an eerie silence.
The next second, gasps and disbelieving murmurs erupted.
"One hundred million Federal Coins for a broken bird egg? They're crazy!"
"Is this world crazy, or am I crazy? There are too many rich people nowadays, they really don't treat money as money anymore?"
"Who is in that private room? They're so generous, and what exactly is inside this broken bird egg that made two people bid up to one hundred million?"
Let alone the crowd.
Scarhead and the others in the same private room were even more stunned.
One hundred million Federal Coins for a useless egg?
Crazy!
"Little Xuan, you're being foolish!"
Scarhead rubbed his shiny head and said, "With that money, wouldn't it be better to sell resources to improve your strength? At the very least, it's better to buy a rock for stone gambling than to gamble on a bird egg!"
"Yeah!"
Ma Tao squatted beside Lu Xuan, her slender jade hand caressing his face, and said, "With this money, I could find you so many wives."
Zhang Wei said lewdly, "I could cut off my... for you."
Lu Xuan looked up, his expression not relaxed in the slightest, but rather extremely grave. "Uncle, I'm not joking. This egg must be obtained. Also, do you guys have any money on hand?"
"Lend me some first."
"..."
Crazy!
Scarhead clutched his head, his face full of heartache. "I shouldn't have brought you along if I'd known."
But seeing Lu Xuan's serious expression, he hesitated.
"I've saved a bit over the years, I can lend it to you first!"
Saying that, he swiped on his Martial Artist system and transferred tens of millions of Federal Coins to Lu Xuan.
Seeing this, the others hesitated for a moment before also transferring some money to Lu Xuan.
At the Martial Artist stage, most people didn't have much savings.
Unless you didn't want to advance to Martial Master in this lifetime, you could earn a lot of money. Otherwise, the money earned from Wilderness Adventures was barely enough for cultivation, and sometimes you even had to pay out of pocket.
In the private room on the third floor.
Gong Yubai, the founder of the Monster Potion Company, sat on the sofa, swirling a wine glass in one hand and resting his chin on the other. He asked, "Which faction is downstairs?"
His subordinate respectfully replied, "It seems to be a Martial Artist from the Zero Martial Arts Company, but according to the information my subordinate has investigated, this person does not belong to the Zero Martial Arts Company..."
"Not a Zero Martial Arts Company Martial Artist?"
Bang~ Gong Yubai crushed the wine glass in his hand and snorted coldly, "Not a company Martial Artist, yet you dare to bid like this? Giving yourself airs?"
"Five hundred million Federal Coins!"
Gong Yubai's voice echoed throughout the venue.
Whoosh--!
The auction hall erupted in commotion.
No one expected that after Lu Xuan had bid the sky-high price of one hundred million, someone would still bid higher.
This Skyfire Chicken egg.
Even if it was a Beast Lord level one that was undamaged or not dead, it wasn't worth this price!
Five hundred million Federal Coins!
That was enough to buy a living Beast Lord level monster!
In the private room.
The wine glass in Lu Xuan's hand clattered to the floor.
His body stiffened slightly, and he looked towards the private room on the third floor. Closing his eyes, he began to weigh the pros and cons:
"Five hundred million Federal Coins is already enough to buy a living Beast Lord level monster that hasn't condensed a Qi and Blood Golden Elixir. Even for a human-condensed Qi and Blood Golden Elixir, the highest price is only around two billion Federal Coins..."
But the Qi and Blood Golden Elixir in this egg is different.
It's attached with fire attribute, and a normal person refining it can obtain this innate divine ability.
This is simply not something that can be measured by money.
It's a priceless treasure!
Qi and Blood Golden Elixirs are divided into human and monster types.
A human-condensed Qi and Blood Golden Elixir belongs to the person's lifelong insights. After refining, it can provide a rapid increase in a short period, but there's a 99.9% chance it will cause one's strength to be permanently stuck at the Martial Dao Grandmaster realm.
Monster Qi and Blood Golden Elixirs are different. Refining them not only increases vitality, but some monster Qi and Blood Golden Elixirs are attached with special attributes like wind, fire, lightning, water... etc. After refining, one can also obtain one of the monster's attributes, with extremely high growth potential.
The only drawback is that there's no obvious improvement in realm or strength.
Which one to choose is obvious.
Even if Lu Xuan can't use the fire attribute divine ability, he can sell it for billions, or even tens of billions, making a guaranteed profit.
Moreover, it comes with a Skyfire Chicken that can be reborn from ashes.
This is even more priceless.
The problem now is...
"I don't have enough money!"
Lu Xuan's expression turned grim as his gaze fell on Scarhead and the others.
"Little Xuan, give up!"
Scarhead shook his head, "Even if you sold us, we couldn't gather five hundred million Federal Coins."
He had just taken out his ten million savings, thinking he could help Lu Xuan.
But the other party had immediately raised the price to five hundred million.
This kind of cash flow was something a Martial Dao Grandmaster couldn't produce.
"Yeah, it's just a damn egg. When big sister breaks through to Martial Master, I'll find one for you..."
Ma Tao and the others tried to persuade him.
Lu Xuan remained silent.
He absolutely couldn't give up. This Qi and Blood Golden Elixir, even if he couldn't use it himself, he could give it to his sister to help her improve her combat power, absorb attributes, and build up her trump cards.
Besides, he couldn't afford to delay.
In another half a month, his sister would be participating in the martial arts tournament.
Most importantly, Future intel mentioned that the ones ambushing and assassinating his sister were from a Pharmaceutical Company. If they obtained the Qi and Blood Golden Elixir, wouldn't he indirectly be causing his sister's death?
Absolutely not.
Today, this damn egg must be obtained, no matter what!
But he didn't have that much money!
"What can I use to exchange for money?"
Lu Xuan's mind raced, thinking through the most valuable things he possessed.
The psychic power cultivation method, the Bronze Gourd, and future intel.
Besides these, He had nothing worth over a hundred million.
So poor... Lu Xuan was troubled, his fingers constantly rubbing against his storage ring.
Suddenly--
"Wait!"
He stared at the storage ring, or rather, the blue crystal necklace inside the storage ring.
"Holy Cult token..."
This item could sense Holy Cult followers within a radius of several miles. In this entire venue, Lu Xuan wasn't the only one possessing a blue crystal item.
There was one other person who had one!
That was the female boss of Zero Martial Arts Company.
"Five hundred million, first time!"
The host's voice interrupted Lu Xuan's thoughts. His gaze flickered towards the gavel that had been raised. Lu Xuan gritted his teeth and took out the blue crystal necklace.
"Five hundred million..."
The host deliberately drew out his words, his peripheral vision occasionally glancing at the private box where Lu Xuan and the others were, waiting for them to bid again.
The audience also watched intently, their gazes darting back and forth between the gavel and the private box.
"Will there be a miracle?"
"One more time, let me see Hajidan's limit!"
"Can a broken egg fetch a billion?"
The atmosphere was tense.
Everyone was waiting to see if Lu Xuan would continue bidding.
Including Zero Martial Arts Company.
The woman crossed her snow-white jade feet, staring with interest at the private box below, wanting to see if Lu Xuan still had the guts to bid.
"Five hundred million, second call!"
The host's second call echoed.
The venue was terrifyingly silent, and the woman's fingers tightened slightly.
At almost that very instant, The blue crystal on her wrist suddenly glowed, bathing her face in light.
"Hmm?!"
A hint of surprise flickered across the woman's originally stern face.
Sensing the blue crystal, she subconsciously glanced in a certain direction, which was none other than Lu Xuan's private box!
"Holy Cult..."
The woman's eyes lowered, and she instantly understood.
The person bidding in that box was a follower of the Holy Cult, and they were sending her a request for help!
In an instant, The atmosphere in the venue shifted.
The woman hesitated.
Gong Yubai swirled his wine glass, his face full of determination.
Lu Xuan clenched the blue crystal necklace in his hand, his mind highly alert.
Everyone in the venue stared at the gavel in the host's hand, their breaths caught.
"Five hundred million, third call..."
The host's voice suddenly quickened, and just as she was about to bring down the hammer--
"Six hundred million!"
The woman finally shouted it out.
BOOM!
The taut strings of everyone's hearts snapped, turning into an earth-shattering uproar.
Someone had bid higher!
Hearing the shout, Lu Xuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It worked after all!
CRASH~ Gong Yubai crushed the wine glass in his hand again, raising his head indignantly to look at the private box opposite, where the Zero Martial Arts Company group was.
"Good, good, good!"
"Zero Martial Arts Company, you're really something!"
In his excitement, he didn't rashly bid higher.
Five hundred million wasn't his limit, but it was the limit for that broken egg.
"Heh heh... Six hundred million for a broken egg!"
Instead, He sneered, his voice carrying across the entire venue without reservation: "Zero Martial Arts Company, truly rich and powerful. Six hundred million for a broken egg, Gong is impressed."
Mockery, naked mockery.
Everyone could hear it.
What happened today was destined to be spread, and the latest videos were already online.
#Shocking, Zero Martial Arts Company acquires a Beast Lord Level dead egg for six hundred million#
In the private box.
Lu Xuan had just breathed a sigh of relief when a Martial Artist walked in. The leader was a Qi and Blood Martial Master, whose mere presence caused vitality to surge.
Scarhead and the others quickly bowed respectfully: "Greetings, sirs!"
The leading Qi and Blood Martial Master scanned the room and asked, "Who was bidding just now?"
"Sir..."
Scarhead was about to say something, but Lu Xuan spoke directly:
"I was!"
"Very good, our boss requests your presence!"
